영어 수업에서 마지막 과제가 나왔습니다.
선생님이 말했습니다.
영자가 집에 와서 노트를 폈습니다.
누구에게 쓸까?
딸에게? 소연이에게? Linda에게? Rosa에게?
다 생각해봤지만...
아침이 됐을 때 영자는 알았습니다.
영어에게 쓰자.
The teacher gives a final assignment.
"Write a letter to anyone or anything."
Young-ja writes a letter to English.
She reads it in class.
"Dear English,
One year ago, you were my enemy. I was afraid.
Now you help me order coffee, make appointments, and make friends.
You helped me make a joke — and people laughed.
I still make mistakes. But now mistakes make me laugh.
You are not just a language.
You are my courage.
Love, Young-ja.
P. S. 'You shouldn't have' still makes me smile! "
Everyone claps.
The teacher says, "That belongs to everyone in this room."
Rosa asks for a copy.
Young-ja says, "I will write it for you — with maybe one or two mistakes."
Rosa laughs. "Mistakes are your teachers!"
They walk out together, smiling.
The final assignment: write a letter to anyone or anything.
Young-ja decides to write to English itself.
On presentation day, she reads her letter clearly and honestly.
She was afraid of English one year ago.
She hid from phone calls. She smiled and nodded when she didn't understand.
She was invisible.
But slowly, English helped her — drive-throughs, dentists, neighbors, friends,
a driving test, Amazon, jokes, bedtime stories, a Thanksgiving table.
"I still make mistakes every day.
But mistakes make me laugh now — not cry.
You are not just a language anymore.
You are my courage. "
The room goes silent. Then everyone applauds.
The teacher says this letter belongs to every person who has ever been afraid of a language.
Rosa asks for a copy.
Young-ja smiles: "With maybe one or two mistakes."
Rosa: "Mistakes are your teachers — I know!"
They walk out together into the spring.
"Write a letter," Ms. Rivera said on the last Tuesday of the course.
"To anyone or anything you choose. In English.
That's the only rule. "
Young-ja sat with the assignment for two days.
She considered her daughter — the obvious choice.
Soyeon, Linda, Rosa — all deserving.
She even considered writing to the park bench,
which had given her more conversations than she had any right to expect.
But on the morning of the third day, she knew.
